I always arrive 3 hours early but end up waiting forever. What's actually needed?

2 hours is usually enough with PreCheck/online check-in.

Depends on airport. JFK? 3 hours. SFO? 90 minutes is fine.

If you have lounge access, arriving early is enjoyable anyway.

First international flight of the day? Go earlier for customs staffing.
